Drought stress is an alarming constraint to plant growth, development, and productivity
worldwide. However, plant-associated bacteria, fungi, and viruses can enhance stress …

Abiotic stresses in soil occur due to high salinity, temperature, drought, heavy metals, and
nutrients inhibit the functions of plants and cause a reduction in crop productivity. The …

Agriculture production faces many abiotic stresses, mainly drought, salinity, low and high
temperature. These abiotic stresses inhibit plants' genetic potential, which is the cause of …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) have been presumed to ameliorate crop tolerance to
drought. Here, we review the role of AMF in maintaining water supply to plants from drying …

Abstract Toxic aluminum ions (Al3+) found in acidic soils are absorbed by plants and interact
with multiple sites during plant development, affecting especially the root growth. The …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) alter plant water relations and contribute to soil structure.
Although soil hydraulic properties depend on soil structure and may limit plant water uptake …

Drought is an important threat worldwide, therefore, it is vital to create workable solutions to
mitigate the negative effects of drought stress. To this end, we investigated the interactive …

The FAO estimates a 34% increase in the world population by 2050. As a result, the
productivity of important staple crops needs to be boosted by ca. 43%. Against the mosaic of …

Perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) refers to a vital species of grass grown extensively
as a biofuel and biochemical production across temperate regions. However, both low …

The most dominant arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiont can be established on roots of
most terrestrial plants by beneficial AM fungi. A type of polycationic and aliphatic …
